Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or quantities:
“Let us be unashamed of soul,
As earth lies bare to heaven above!
How is it under our control
To love or not to love?”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)
“The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand:
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
“If this were only cleared away,”
They said, “it would be grand!”
“If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year,
Do you suppose,” the Walrus said,
“That they could get it clear?”
“I doubt it,” said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
